We’re excited to share a feature that unlocks a whole new level of power and flexibility in Stately’s editor: sources. With sources, you can now provide implementation source code for your actions, actors, and guards, making syncing between the editor and your codebase a breeze.

As we start 2024, we wanted to look back at what the Stately team accomplished in 2023 and take a sneak peek at what you can expect from Stately in 2024.

Watch our latest office hours live stream where we cover new features including draft projects, sources, Stately Inspect, and GitHub Sync.

We’ve updated the Learn Stately videos for our newest features! Watch these videos for a quick tour of how to use the editor in 8 minutes. You can find these videos in the Studio by following the Learn Stately banner link or in the editor menu > Help > Learn Stately.

TIDEFI turns to Stately to build a resilient financial platform that prioritizes user-friendly transactions and investments.

The Stately team had the pleasure of sitting down with Parker McMullin, Senior Frontend Lead at TIDEFI, to discuss how our logic modeling and visualization tooling helped him manage app complexity and onboarding in TIDEFI’s financial services platform. Parker was so kind as to provide his experiences below, covering the very beginnings of his project from design to development as well as the challenges encountered and how other Stately users came to his aid. He shares his firsthand experiences applying modern software design patterns to his project, engaging with the technical community, and proving instrumental in shaping the direction of XState V5. We’re honored to have Parker in our community, and we hope his words can inspire teams to better navigate complexity in their own apps!

In the always-changing world of digital signage for modern businesses, Fugo turns to Stately's tooling to tackle complex application logic, ensuring robust IOT systems and seamless communication across design concerns in an industry where reliability is key.

Today, we’re happy to finally release XState v5! This is a new major version of XState focusing on actors and helping you get started with XState faster and more easily than previous versions.

State machine transitions may take zero time, but transitioning from XState v4 to v5 took a long time. We released XState v4 in October 2018 and have been working on the next major version of XState for most of the years since. With over 25k stars on GitHub, 1 million weekly downloads on npm, and an amazing community, we’ve been able to listen to and learn from those using XState in production and create a version that is more powerful yet simpler (and smaller!) than ever before.

When it came to navigating the complexities of business context and application state, Koordinates found their solution in Stately's tools, reshaping their coding practices and ensuring a seamless user experience.

It’s been about a year since we’ve released Stately Studio 1.0, and a lot has happened. Stately Studio is essentially a visual software modeling tool that strives to make it easy to create, manage, and use state machines, no matter how complex they may get. Primarily, it served as a powerful set of devtools for XState (an open-source library for creating state machines, statecharts and actors in JavaScript and TypeScript). You could import XState code to a state diagram, modify it visually in an intuitive drag-and-drop canvas, and export to XState. Eventually, we added more export options: JSON, Markdown, Mermaid diagrams, and stories.

But Stately Studio has bigger ambitions than just being a suite of devtools for XState. We’ve frequently heard that these state diagrams are an important source of truth for critical app logic, serving as documentation for the entire team that stays up-to-date with your code. But a reliable source of truth for app logic is a need for all apps, not just those that use state machines directly.

That’s why we’re so excited to release Stately Studio 2.0, which aims to meet developers where they are, no matter which libraries, frameworks, or even languages they use. There are many benefits to modeling app logic with state diagrams and the actor model, and we want to enable developers to take advantage of those benefits to build more robust, feature-rich, and maintainable app logic faster.
